Minute To Win It Games

Minute to Win It Games for Adults : It was a popular game show on NBC: the contestants were given one minute to complete a task or a challenge. Sometimes silly, sometimes challenging, many times, the show was so fun that people started throwing their own “Minute to Win It” parties. With just a little effort and some supplies, you can participate in the fun with your own group.

DEFY GRAVITY:

With just one hand, each player must prevent two balloons from touching the ground for one minute. For a more challenging game, increase the amount to three balloons per player (and use balloons of different colors for each player to make it easier to differentiate them). Without holding balloons!

THREAD IT:

Have the contestants tap as many needles as they can in a minute. This sounds simple, but the game can be very frustrating and competitive.

COOKIE MONSTER:

Each player places a cookie on his forehead, and the goal is to introduce the cookie into his mouth using only the facial muscles in less than a minute. Without hands. This is more difficult than it looks!

PENNY FOR YOUR THOUGHTS:

Players must stack 25 cents in less than a minute with just one hand. This game works well with three players competing in each game round.

STACKING:

Some people like to eat them whole, others like to screw the top and eat them in parts. But how are you going to stack Oreos? Look how many you can accumulate in a minute without the tower of goodness collapsing.

SUCK IT UP :

Players put a straw in their mouth and use suction to transfer a bunch of 25 M & M from one dish to another in less than a minute. Only one hand can be used to hold the straw. Everyone can eat their sweets when the round is over!

DO YOU WANT A SPOON?

Using just one spoon in your mouth, transfer as many ping pong balls as you can from one container to another. Without hands! Hands are only allowed if you release the ping pong ball, and then they can be used to place the ball back in the original container for another transfer attempt.

I’M A SPOONER EGG-CELLENT:

Put a notch on it and replace the ping pong balls with eggs. Using only a spoon, players carry an egg from one end of the room to the other. Cross the room as many times as you can in a minute.

WATER PONG:

Try a variation of the game only for adults. Fill the plastic cups with water and place at least six on the opposite end of the table. Throw ping-pong balls in order to land in the cups (without rimming). The winner is the person who sinks the most shots in a minute.

STUFF IT! –

Buy bags of big swollen marshmallows and have the contestants take everything they can in their mouth in a minute. Ask them to recite something funny later!

THE PYRAMID GAME:

Stack the red cups in a pyramid and then undo the pile without it collapsing. Add an additional challenge by asking participants to stack with one hand.

SPRAY OFF –

This game tries to stay cool when under pressure. Players will receive a spray bottle filled with water, and the goal is to guide a floating balloon to a trash can using only the sprayer. If the balloon touches the ground, they have to start over.

RICE DISH:

Use the chopsticks to transfer as much rice as possible from one container to another with one hand. (Hint: use raw rice so that the texture makes the rice difficult to handle).

MR. PRESIDENT:

Name as many presidents of the United States. UU As you can in 60 seconds. It sounds easy. Until you have to do it.
